New dental device aims to make Kids' tooth numbing less scary
NCT ID NCT07198997
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study will test whether a computer-controlled device that delivers numbing medicine directly into the jawbone can reduce pain and anxiety in children aged 6-9 during dental procedures, compared to the standard numbing injection. One hundred healthy children will be randomly assigned to receive one method on one side of the mouth and the other method on the opposite side. Researchers will measure heart rate and use behavior scales to see which approach is more comfortable.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Computer-controlled intraosseous anesthesia device (SleeperOne5)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could point toward a less painful and less anxiety-inducing way to numb children's teeth for dental procedures.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study (100 children) comparing two techniques, so results may not apply to all children or settings. The new device may not be significantly better than the standard method.
